 You should try to implement this as a plugin using the hooks available
 rather than as a core hack. In general, if you are going to submit a
 temporary hack, you should only distribute it as a patch file. Then,
 ideally, only those knowledgeable enough to realize what they are doing
 will go forward with it.

 As a matter of creating patches, please post a single patch with all
 changes, and make that patch against "trunk", which is currently 3.4-RC1
 but is always a moving target.

 And in terms of getting it into a future release, I'd have to take a
 closer look at the approach, but I definitely like the general direction.
